Have a Nerd on Your Xmas List??

Then I bet they will love getting a $25 gift card to Barnes & Noble!! I only say this because I myself am a giant nerd and I could spend hours in B&N. Sometimes the smell of a new book is like crack. Ok, now I'm scaring you.


How's this for unscary though: you only have to pay $15 for the $25 gift card! Just go here and sign-up for the daily emails (if you haven't already) and then you should see it as the National deal. Only good through the rest of today, so hurry!!

$10 for a $20 Gift Certificate to Old Navy!

There are so many good deals today that I had to post more than once! I get excited, what can I say? And I'm saving you money, so DON'T COMPLAIN or else Santa will NEVER come because he is officially watching now.


Anyway...today on Groupon you can get a $20 certificate to Old Navy for only $10! It's good on sale items too!  You can't use it until tomorrow (11/26) but who wants to go to the mall on Black Friday anyway?! Bad things happen there:


How Much Did I Pay for All of This???


It's a trick question!! I paid absolutely NOTHING!! In fact, I actually MADE money from CVS for all of this stuff. 

Here's how (the really shortened version):
  • I started with $19 ExtraCare Bucks from previous shopping trips.
  • CVS's Black Friday ad was ah-MAZE-ing! So many things are completely FREE after ECBs
  • I used some coupons to make the amount that I actually spent less than what I got back - making me money!!
The total retail value of everything you see here is $76.23.  I spent $2.38 in cash out of my own pocket, BUT in the end, I made $4 in ECBs after all of my transactions were done (I did 3 of them). So overall, I got $76 worth of stuff for free AND gained about $1.50.

You can do this too! The sale is good until Saturday 11/26. It's SO easy! If you're interested or have any questions about where to find coupons, just ask! The best part? You won't get trampled, bloodied, or bruised like you might at Best Buy or Walmart!

Happy Black Friday to meeeee!

A Quick and (Relatively) Painless FREE Way to Get a $10 Amazon Gift Card!

Have you ever visited StumbleUpon? My boyfriend has used it a few times and we have learned how to get change from a vending machine even when you didn't put any money in (although I'm not sure this is legal...in which case, I did NOT tell you to try this). You can also find out how to make the elevator not stop on any floor but the one you're going to. Which reminds me of this commercial:



You can customize your favorites so that you "stumble" upon things that you are interested in all over the web. Cute puppy pictures, deals and coupons(!!), comics, weird trivia that no one else even WANTS to know, how to do the Running Man (go ahead, we won't judge). Right now you can also get a $10 Amazon Gift card for every 5 friends you get to join too!! I feel like I should put that last part in neon flashing lights or something! It's almost too easy!

All you have to do is go here to sign up for StumbleUpon, and then use your referral link to invite friends via email, Twitter, Facebook, or tin can & string telephones! Ok, that last one might not work, but the others all do. Then for every 5 friends who sign up for FREE using your link, you get a $10 Amazon gift card! So I hope you have a lot of nice friends who want to take 60 seconds to sign up and get you FREE money, and then they can pass it along to their friends and get some free money themselves!! In fact, I hope I have a lot of nice friends who will do the same (wink, wink). You could try bribery. This always works on me:

Need Something to Do After You Come Out of Your Turkey Coma??

   

Here we go again with the movie deals! I love these! We go to the movies a lot, so I'm always on the lookout for cheap tickets. I mean, you can buy the DVD for cheaper than some movies, and then you could watch it over and over again. Well, I guess I wouldn't really do that since the only movies I ever cared to watch more than once were Billy Madison and Halloween.


Wrong holiday, I know. So anyway, on Tippr for the next 5 days you can get 2 Fandango movie tickets for just $12! AND you get a $5 credit just for signing up! Which means you get 2 tickets for $7!!! That's like what they cost back in 1902 or something!! 

Now, the big dilemma is.... Muppet movie or Marilyn Monroe movie?? Or both?!
